Reddit goes dark

As it moves to shut down third-party apps, the site’s self-governing ethos comes back to haunt it

@caseynewton Excellent writeup!

Slight nitpick: As far as I'm aware, only *non-commercial* accessibility apps are/were being considered for exemption. Which excludes (a lot of?) the most commonly used ones.

@gerakion ahh this is a good point, thank you
@caseynewton @gerakion /r/blind put together a list of their frequently used apps, and many were commercial and would not be exempted
